Instead of leaving, the friend decides to sit and wait at Colbie's door, and Colbie is shown arriving as the two exchange smiles.
I'm pretty like Colbie's singing style, and have a lot of favorite singles: Battle, Bubbly, Capri, Feelings Show, Kiss The Girl, Magic, Mistletoe, Older, Onde Fire Wire, Oxygen, Tailor Made and The Little Things.

Secondhand Serenade is an American acoustic rock solo project fronted by vocalist and guitarist John Vesely. The "Fall for You" was the 1st single from Secondhand Serenade's 2nd studio album 'A Twist in My Story'.
A music video was released a week after the single was released. It features John Vesely playing the piano and performing the song intercut with footage of Vesely with a woman. They seem to be happily in love until he appears to show some insecurity, making her think he doesn't love her when he really does. This results in a fight breaking out between the two of them resulting in her wanting to leave. In the end, however, she comes back to him.
I also like his debut album 'Awake' in 2007, as well as the last single 'Goodbye' from album 'A Twist in My Story'.
